Once a 19th-century farmhouse, 'Weldon' has been lovingly refurbished into a gorgeous four-bedroom residence of refined elegance. Gracefully paying homage to a bygone era, this enchanting property would be right at home in the South of France and offers a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

Welcomed by an attractive freshly painted exterior and solid concrete construction, inside you are greeted with a delightful fusion of charming character features and modern convenience. Spoiled for choice for entertaining areas, regale guests in one of two spacious sitting rooms; unwind with your latest book in the sunroom; cosy up by the freestanding wood burner in the reading nook; or enjoy the sound of birdsong and the summer evenings on the covered patio.

Create culinary masterpieces in the country-style kitchen, which opens out to the covered patio and beautifully landscaped garden at the rear of the property for celebrations al fresco.

A double bedroom, family bathroom, separate office, and a laundry with shower, complete this spacious ground floor. Upstairs offers a large master bedroom with fitted wardrobes, a pretty double bedroom, a single bedroom and the second family bathroom. The gas fireplace, wood burner, and heat transfer system, ensures a comfortable atmosphere for cooler days.

At the rear of the garden is a special surprise - a studio room with kitchenette and hot water, recently insulated and re-roofed, ideal as an artists studio or work from home office. Connected to this is the original stables, converted into a generous outhouse providing ample storage for all the tools, toys and the possibility of covered space for a car.

Private and carefully designed, the wonderfully landscaped grounds boast a collection of established plantings, multiple seating areas, as well as ample room for a pool. With a charming home, stunning grounds, and all positioned 600m (more or less) from the village as well as within easy walking distance to well-regarded schools.
